Intel's stock surged 369% driven by strong demand for its traditional Xeon CPUs used in AI inference servers, overshadowing setbacks in its specialized AI chip project, Gaudi. While the market initially focused on Intel's slower-than-expected AI chip adoption and cancellation of next-gen versions, management highlighted the growing importance of CPUs for AI inference workloads. This shift was confirmed in Intel's fiscal Q1 2025 results, where better-than-expected Xeon sales, fueled by hyperscaler demand, boosted revenue. The story underscores the value of Intel's core CPU business in the evolving AI landscape, suggesting investors consider broad semiconductor exposure through ETFs for diversified gains.
